Beginner w/ questions

[tkdwoody]

Hello, I have several questions that I would love to have answered. Rather than write a long drawn out paragraph, I'll do it numerically.

1. Where is the best place(online) to get a mated pair of black false percula. My wife hates the idea of a pair of orange ones.
a. How do you know they are a mated pair
b. Are there stores that are honest about it?
c. Can I just order two clownfish and then one will change sex?

2. In regards to a bta. How much light do they need? What do you feed them? Can they get to much light(I have a solana 34 gallon w/ 150w MH)

3. How old should a tank be before you can add an anenome.

4. I have soft corals that are doing pretty well...does this mean an anenome will do well also?

I appreciate the answers in advance.

Thanks

1.
a. Mated pairs have spawned previously in an aquarium.
b. Should be, just look around a bit and do some research beforehand.
c. If you order one that is smaller than the other, the large one should become the female.

2. That should be plenty of light. Many people do not feed them, but mysis seems to work well for a lot of people.

3. At least 9 months, a year preferable.

4. Unfortunately, no. Anemones are much more sensitive than soft corals and require a lot of stability. They are not nearly as forgiving in terms of water quality.
